I want to remind you that you mustn’t be perfunctory in the slightest or careless regarding My word; you must heed and obey, and act in accordance with My intentions. You must always be alert, and never have a haughty or self-righteous disposition; at all times, you must rely on Me to cast off the old, natural dispositions that have dwelt within you. You should always be able to maintain a normal condition before Me, and possess a stable disposition. Your thinking must be sober and clear, and should not be constrained or swayed by any person, event, or thing. You should always be capable of quietness in My presence, and constantly and continually draw close to and fellowship with Me. You must show strength and backbone, and stand firm in your testimony to Me; rise up and speak for Me, and fear not what other people might say. Just satisfy My intentions, and do not let anyone constrain you. What I reveal to you must be followed in accordance with My intentions, and cannot be delayed. How do you feel deep down? Do you feel uncomfortable? You will be clear on this. Why are you unable to stand up and speak on My behalf and be considerate of My burden? You insist on making your own little moves, but I see everything clearly. I am your support and your shield, and all is in My hands. What, then, are you afraid of? Are you not being too sentimental? You must cast off your feelings as soon as you can; I do not act out of feelings, but exercise righteousness instead. If anyone does something that is of no benefit to the church, even if it’s your parents, that is unacceptable! My intentions have been revealed to you, and you may not ignore them. Rather, you must focus greatly on them. Cast everything else aside to follow wholeheartedly—I will protect you and always keep you in My hands. Do not always be timid and subject to the constraints of your husband or wife; you must allow My will to be carried out.

Have faith! Have faith! I am your Almighty. Perhaps you have some insight into this, but you still must be vigilant. For the sake of the church, My will, and My management, you must be fully devoted; all mysteries and outcomes will be made clear to you. There will be no further delay; the days are coming to an end. What should you do? How to pursue growing and maturing in life, how to more quickly make yourself fit for My use, how to ensure My will is carried out—you must ponder these topics carefully, and engage in deeper fellowship with Me. Rely on Me, believe in Me, never be careless, and be able to go about things in accordance with My guidance. You must be fully equipped with the truth, and you must eat and drink it more often. You must put every truth into practice, only then will you have a clear understanding.

Do you now feel that you do not have enough time? Do you also feel different inside, as if your burden is now very heavy? My intentions are on you; you must be clear-headed, and not break away from them. You must always remain connected with Me, continually draw close to Me, fellowship with Me, be considerate of My heart, and be able to serve in cooperation with others, so that My intentions will always be revealed to you. Pay close attention at all times! Close attention! Do not slacken even a little bit; that is your duty, and My work dwells within it.

At this point, you may have gained a little understanding, and feel this is quite wonderful. You have had some doubts in the past, always feeling that it differs entirely from human notions, ideas, and conceptions, but now you basically comprehend it. This is My wondrous work, and it is the wondrous work of God as well; you absolutely must be wide awake and waiting and walk in it. Time is in My hands; do not waste it, and never slacken for even a moment; wasting time delays My work and it causes My will to be obstructed in you. You must ponder and fellowship with Me frequently. You also must bring all your actions, movements, thoughts, and ideas, as well as your family, your husband, your sons and your daughters, before Me. Do not rely on the self in your actions, or I shall grow angry, and your losses shall then be dear.

Restrict your own steps at all times, and constantly walk within My words. You must have My wisdom. Come before Me if you encounter any difficulties, and I shall give you guidance. Do not act recklessly and fellowship arbitrarily. That does not benefit your life, because you lack knowledge and cannot differentiate between good words and bad. Only when you have been harmed, are in a bad condition, and are without the presence of the Holy Spirit, do you realize this, but by then, it is too late. Time is so pressing now, so you must not lag even a little in the race of life; you must follow My footsteps very closely. When any difficulties arise, engage in frequent contemplation by drawing close to Me, and fellowship with Me directly. If you can grasp this path, this will ease the entry ahead of you.

My words are not only directed at you; everyone in the church is lacking in different ways. You must fellowship more, be able to eat and drink independently during your own spiritual devotions, and be able to grasp the key truths and put them into practice immediately. You must feel out the reality of My word, and grasp its very core and its principles and not slacken your grip. Always ponder, and always fellowship with Me, and gradually things will be revealed. You cannot come close to God for a little while and, then, without waiting for your heart to grow quiet before Him, be disturbed when something else happens to you. You are always muddleheaded and unclear about things, and unable to see My face; as such, you cannot gain a clear understanding of My heart—and even if you can understand it a bit, you are uncertain and still doubt. Only when I possess your heart in full, and your mind is no longer disturbed by any worldly things and you can wait in quiet with a clear mind, shall I little by little make revelations to you, one by one, in accordance with My intentions. You must apprehend this path of closeness to Me. Whoever hits you or curses at you, or however nice the things people offer you might be, it is unacceptable if they keep you from drawing close to God; in this way, your heart will be in My grasp, and will never leave My side. By drawing close to Me like this and engaging in this kind of fellowship, your parents, husband, children, other familial contact, and worldly entanglements will all float away, you will always enjoy an almost indescribable sweetness in your heart, and you will experience a fragrant and delicious taste—you will truly be inseparable from Me. If you continue in this manner, you will understand what is in My heart. You will never lose your way as you continue to move forward, for I am your way, and everything exists because of Me. How mature your life will become, when you will be able to break away from the world, when you will be able to cast off your feelings, when you will be able to leave behind your husband and children, and when your life will mature … all these things will happen in accordance with My time. Being anxious is of no use.

You must attain entry from a positive angle. If you wait passively, then you are still being negative. You must be proactive in cooperating with Me; be diligent, and not be lazy. Always fellowship with Me and attain an even deeper intimacy with Me. If you do not understand, do not be impatient for quick results. It is not that I will not tell you; it is that I want to see whether you rely on Me in My presence, and whether you have the faith to depend on Me. You must always draw close to Me, and place all matters in My hands. Do not pull back fruitlessly. If you draw close to Me like this for a period of time, then My intentions shall be revealed to you before you know it. If you grasp them, then you will truly have come face to face with Me—you will truly have found My face. Inwardly, you will possess considerable clarity and steadiness, and you will have something to rely on, as well as strength, faith, and a path forward. Everything will come easily to you.
